Purchasing Throttle Position Sensor

Stay away from the unbranded ones as they tend to only have a single potentiometer. And right now there seems to be an abundance of entire replacement throttle bodies with the sensor for cheaper than I can find a solo Denso sensor .

Randy, I’m fairly sure Denso doesn’t make one for our cars as a replacement. Yes, I know they were the original makers of our TPS’s but, I guess they weren’t allowed (?) to make them for individual parts sale. Up until about 4-5 years ago, we couldn’t even get an aftermarket one. We were relegated to either buying a used TB or buying an entire new ($$$$$$$) TB from Jaguar. I bought an aftermarket TPS from eBay about 4-5 years ago for my own car as a spare (about $25) and I’ve installed it on a few customers cars to diagnose their original failing tps and the AM one performed great. I wish Denso made a direct replacement tps for our cars.

Just to add to this, there are two TPS & we can still only get one.
I was getting TPS error codes on mine & initially the sensor as pictured in this thread fixed it. But then it came back, but only when the cruise control was 'armed'. There's a second TPS at the throttle cable end of the throttle body so it seems, I had to get a second hand TB and fit that to fix my cars issues. Helpfully by changing a couple of external parts (inc a water feed on the back of the TB) you can fit a supercharged car with the TB off an NA one as the actual TB is the same size.

I used this company. I purchased the rebuild service through eBay thou.

In addition, I used another company to bore/port ( don't quote me which team, the center diameter is unchanged) after the rebuilt.
I needed to do that because it is a part of a even bigger project and story- full Supercharger rebuild ,porting and powder coating.
on and on
